A cultural, scientific and conservation-focused history of the iconic jaguar
Jaguars have long captivated human imagination, inspiring awe, fear and reverence across the Americas and beyond. This book examines both the biology and behaviour of this iconic apex predator and the deep cultural history of human-jaguar interactions, from prehistoric civilizations to the modern era. Drawing on artefacts, literature and textual sources in English, Spanish, French, Latin, Mayan K'iche' and Nahuatl, it traces how jaguars have been represented in art, cinema and popular culture. Steven Wagschal also considers the role of jaguars in shaping evolutionary theory and the global conservation efforts aimed at protecting them today. This richly illustrated book celebrates jaguars as both living creatures and enduring cultural symbols.
